The Gold Coast Titans have confirmed their Hostplus Cup allocations for the upcoming season in readiness for Round 1.
Most players will remain at the same affiliated clubs in 2023, with the exception of Tanah Boyd, Keano Kini and Paul Turner who have all made the move across the Coast to Burleigh.
Both the Bears and Seagulls played finals footy in the second tier competition last season, with the former finishing 2022 as minor premiers and narrowly bowing out in the preliminary final; meanwhile, Tweed will be hungry to avenge last year's heartbreaking loss to Sunshine Coast in week two of the playoffs.
Burleigh - under new mentor Luke Burt - will be hoping to start their season off on the right foot, but have a tough challenge in their first clash against the defending premiers at Bishop Park.
The Norths Devils got the chocolates in last year's qualifying final at Pizzey Park, which will add extra motivation and spice to the Round 1 contest.
In the Seagulls' season opener, they'll hope to get off to a winning start up against the Capras up in Rockhampton; although, the clash will be no easy feat after Central Queensland were the surprise packet of 2022 with a heroic finals appearance.
